May-24-10		Chessical: Delmar's Schliemann Defense is treated conservatively by his opponent and soon equality results. Delmar has pressure on the K-side, but his opponent's opposition is well developed and solid. Delmar then destroys his position with <34...Bxa4?> with the obvious intention of running his passed Q-side pawns down the board. <38...d5?> compounds the dire situation. Baird overwhelms Delmar's king-side long before the pawns represent any threat. <45.Kg3> Rg1+ 46.Kh4 d3 47. Rxh7+ Kg6 48. R(e)g7 mate
